July 12 meeting: The Sheridan Story
More than 200,000 children in Minnesota live with food insecurity. Without reliable access to food – such as meal programs at school – the risk of hunger is very real. The Sheridan Story works to combat hunger in our community by filling the gaps to food access that children face: primarily weekends and summers.
 
Join Farmington Rotary at Celt's Pub in downtown Farmington on July 12 to learn what we can do for hungry kids in Farmington. It's here. It's real. We can all help.
Reminder to donate a gift card
This is a reminder that Farminton Rotarians are asked to donate a low-increment gift card to be used as a small prize at the annual Breaking Free family BBQ. Please bring a $5 or $10 gift card to to a meeting by July 26 and give it to Leshia. You can also drop it off for her at Premier Bank in downtown Farmington.
 
Your club is also purchasing two $50 Target gift cards to donate as larger prizes. Thank you for supporting these women and children in their journey to be free of sexual violence.
Meeting hosts
A reminder to check the meeting host schedule in the sidebar of The Source to learn when you are scheduled to serve. Each Rotarian serves as a meeting host one month of the year and is responsible for working with your co-host(s) to do the following:
  • Schedule speakers for your month
  • Arrive early to set up
  • Give the meal count to the kitchen

Please review the meeting host responsibilities for complete details. Contact Janie if you have questions or a conflict with the month you are assigned.
